The finer details

Recently I've had a thing for softer, natural hues closer to my lips' natural colour -- Nude in Private seemed fitting. Rouge Volupte Shine is the newest lipstick range to hit counters; 19 shades beckon you, choose wisely as the first taste won't be your last. I can personally assure you of that.
The goods...
- It's moisturising! I've been applying it directly to my lips in lieu of using chapstick.
- The texture is soft and creamy.
- A soft glossiness is imparted.
- The scent of juicy nectarines can be detected upon application. More please!
The mehs...
- Not as long-lasting as YSL claims.
- It's expensive, even in the US!
